The Sport Hybrid Effect

Electric power accelerates the RLX – and your pulse – in an instant. The 3-motor Sport Hybrid SH-AWD lets you experience unparalleled control and on-rails handling that gives you an unforgettable connection with the road.

Precision All-Wheel Steer

Handling reaches a turning point with Precision All-Wheel Steer, which adjusts rear wheel toe angles to complement the front wheels. They work in-phase for highway-speed stability, counter-steer to decrease turning radius, and toe in while braking to decrease stopping distance.

Superior Audio

Enjoy either the unparalleled Krell Audio System or the exclusive ELS Studio Premium Audio System, each with a 14-speaker layout. Designed for the true audiophile, creating a truly immersive sound experience.

Head-Up Display

The Head-Up Display, available with the Sport Hybrid system, projects a transparent, easy-to-see image onto the lower portion of the windshield letting you view key vehicle information – like digital speedometer readings, power distribution monitor and warnings – while keeping your eyes on the road.

GPS-Linked Climate Control

To maximize comfort for all passengers, the RLX features a tri-zone automatic climate control system that allows the driver, front passenger and rear passengers to adjust their own temperature and airflow settings. A solar sensor measures the sun's intensity to determine its impact on interior temperature while the GPS receiver for the Acura Navigation System tracks the sun's position relative to the car.

On Demand Multi-Use Display

Acura has long been at the forefront of audio and information technology. But as the number of features have grown, so have the number of buttons on the center panel. The RLX designers, however, devised an intuitively easy way to use a touch screen with all the controls you need at any given time. What could have resulted in over 30 buttons is now a mere nine.

SMS / Email Function

Receive, listen and respond to incoming text and email messages in a manner that helps mitigate potential driver distraction. Prepared responses appear on the center display and the system also offers a call-back option.

Voice Recognition

With just the sound of your voice, RLX is at your command. Built-in voice recognition allows you to speak directly to RLX to access its most useful controls like audio, climate and navigation.

AcuraLink Satellite Communication

A significantly more robust generation of AcuraLink began with the RLX. The system now features two-way cellular communication through an embedded cellular device, making it more versatile. Location and diagnostic information can be sent and retrieved from the car, allowing greater interaction with a smartphone, as well as more available services. Many AcuraLink features are free of charge, while others will require a subscription service.

Capless Fuel Filler Door

On RLX, luxury extends to the capless fuel door. Just release the fuel door, fill the tank and flip it shut again. A step is removed and hands stay clean. This surprisingly simple design is such an effortless pleasure that you may never go back to a capped fuel door.

The Keyless Access System

Unlock the RLX doors without taking the key from your pocket. Touch the door handle and the RLX adjusts to your preferred seat, side mirror, audio, phone, navigation and climate settings.

Remote Engine Start

Part of the Keyless Access System, you can warm up the engine and heat or cool cabin temperature – before you get in. On cold days, it activates the heated seats and begins to defrost the windshield.

Adaptive Cruise Control

Conventional cruise control has always been welcome on long highway trips, but can be of little use on an urban driver's daily routine. As with a conventional system, the available Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with low-speed follow system allows you to set a desired speed, but it will also keep a set interval behind a car detected ahead of you so you can enjoy cruise control even in light traffic conditions.

Collision Mitigation Braking System

Distractions happen, so the Collision Mitigation Braking System can alert you to obstacles detected ahead. It’s programmed to provide visual alerts when it determines a crash is possible – and if you don’t react, it can brake for you.

Lane Keeping Assist System

Lane Keeping Assist uses a forward-facing camera above the rear view mirror to keep the RLX centered in a detected lane. If you begin to drift to the side, it will gently guide the car back to the middle of the lane.

Road Departure Mitigation System

To help your RLX stay on the road, the Road Departure Mitigation System uses a monocular camera to recognize roadways and solid lane lines. If the system detects that the RLX has drifted over road markings it will provide alerts, steering assist and if necessary, braking assist.

Vehicle Stability Assist

In wet conditions, Vehicle Stability Assist can reduce the dangers of over and under steering and loss of traction by applying brakes at each wheel as needed and when necessary, reducing engine power.

Blind Spot Information System

If the RLX detects a vehicle in the next lane’s alert zone while going over 20 MPH, an indicator appears on the side mirror. If you signal in the direction of that vehicle, the mirror indicator flashes and a warning beep sounds.

Surround View Camera

No matter how tight the spot you can always emerge from the RLX with it perfectly parked thanks to the Advance Package’s Surround View Camera System. Four exterior cameras together give you a 360 view of the space immediately around the car through the navigation display. A camera button among the nav display controls or an even more conveniently located button on the end of the turn signal lever changes camera views.

Agile Handling Assist

Agile Handling Assist uses the components of the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) system to help improve handling. It uses active braking, usually on an inside wheel, to help the driver smoothly and easily trace the desired line through a curve with smaller steering inputs.

Front & Rear Parking Sensors

Experience a heightened sense of your surroundings. Our innovative parking sensors detect when the RLX is getting close to an object or surface with a series of beeps, which sound more rapid as you get closer.
